I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Amazon (Luxembourg) in Jul 2015
Interview
2 phone screens, math / logic test, written exercise, in person panel interview full day with 6 senior executives, one more phone interview afterwards. Interview they dig deep into the leadership principles. So just prepare for all these principles with different examples very well and the interview will go ok.
Took 3 months to finalize the offer
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They are focusing on all the leadership principles that you can find online. Each interviewer has 2 principles and they ask about samples you can give to proof you possess that skill.
The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (London, England) in Feb 2016
Interview
A couple of low level compatibility interviews with recruiters, followed by a telephonic interview with a hiring authority. Upon successful completion of an interview with the hiring authority you are offered a site visit which involves more panel interviews. Presumably you haven't been offered a job yet, but indications are the panel interview is more for salary banding and placement purposes rather than hiring.

Question 1
All questions concentrated on the companies philosophy and customer orientation
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Amazon (Seattle, WA) in Mar 2016
Interview
Applied online at Amazon.com. Got a phone call from a recruiter about a month later. The recruiter scheduled me for a phone interview with another recruiter. Had the phone interview, then received word about 2 days later that I had passed and would move on to another phone interview with a Site Manager. Had that phone interview, and that person also informed me that I'd be a good fit for the company and recommended me to conduct an on site interview. Got an email from another recruiting coordinator a week later and was scheduled to fly to Amazon in Seattle, WA for onsite interviews. Had 4 interviews with regional directors and an HR manager. Went straightforward and as discussed in the emails leading up to the on site. STAR format, know the leadership principles inside and out and thread them into your behavioral answers they ask. Have your stories ready to go; practice the behavioral style questions before you get there.
